Ten degrees of reckoning : the true story of a family's love and the will to survive / Hester Rumberg.
In 1993, the Sleavin family set out to live their dream: to sail around the world. But one night, a freighter off the coast of New Zealand altered its course by a mere ten degrees, and changed everything. After surviving forty-four hours in the water, with a broken back and paralyzed below the waist, the mother, Judith miraculously survived. Doctors would later say she suffered one of the worst cases of post-traumatic stress syndrome ever documented. Twelve years later, Judith turned to her best friend, Hester Rumberg, and asked her to write what was too painful for her to write. An unbelievable, yet true story of one family's love and profound loss.
